...as a Mummy 
Today is my last day at work before I start my maternity leave and I can honestly say that I must have been insane to think I could work up until my due date! 
I've been really struggling to keep my eyes open at work for about a month now, but sadly finances didn't allow for me to stop any earlier. I just hope this baby doesn't decide to make an appearance this weekend as I'm really looking forward to having a couple of days off to chill out and to "do lunch" with my mates  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

lol i have 16 weeks till i finish work.... and cant wait! enjoy the time you have, try to get out and do things as much as you can ( while still resting of course) and make plenty of time for coffees with friends, lunch with friends, dinner out with dh, and lots of spontaneous "lets go here" things! you wont get that for a very long time.... ------------- Lyla - mum to Xanthe -  my big 4 year old

So much for a send off! I shouted morning tea and the sods left me to do the dishes!
I certainly won't miss them over the next 16 weeks! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

It wasn't through choice Aimee - Some nasty lot called "home loan" kept pinching all our wages! So I sent it on a holiday for 3 months too ------------- http://lilypie.com">
